2020 has been a slow year for RPGs so far, and apparently we will spend a lot of time indoors, so we're having some fun & drama in the forums: a voting for the best non-RPG PC games!

RULES

1. You can vote for up to 20 games, divided into three tiers:
5 games for 5 points
5 games for 3 points
10 games for 1 point

2. NO RPGs. We already have Top RPG polls, this is for everything else. If it's on our Top 101 RPGs list, it can't be voted here.

3. NO CONSOLE GAMES (ports are ok).

4. Voting ends on March 21st (you can edit your votes until then).

5. No Codex accounts from 2020.

VOTE HERE: https://rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?threads/rpg-codexs-top-non-rpg-pc-games-vote-thread.132183/

The idiot with the graphs again...Stay in your cave in Japan and don't bother us with your retardation.

Man, the influx of retards in recent years has become severe. Must be something in the water

Man, the influx of pimps here in recent years has become severe. Must be something in the retard's graphed pussy.

I wouldn't let you touch any of my girls, you seem to suffer from a very aggressive retardation. Don't want them to catch it from you

I am still confused how jagged alliance is an rpg but xcom is not
Although I don't consider either Jagged Alliance 2 or X-Com an RPG, JA2 does have personnel that are closer to being RPG characters than the interchangeable units of X-Com, a greater amount of character progression in attributes and skills than X-Com, and most importantly has exploration of an overworld whereas X-Com just has isolated battle maps. No exploration, no RPG.:M
